Wow - A very diplomatic response from “Mrs. Egg.” She even rated the place diplomatically. Makes me want to go there regardless of the food or décor.

Hi there. This is "Mrs Egg" the wife of the chef (Michael) who is co-owner of Another Broken Egg. Both Michael and Chris, (co owner) came away from managing a Starbucks. For 7 years, Michael managed and grew the Casa Linda Starbucks accross the street, so you probably know this crazy loveable guy. After years of waiting, Michael needed to move onward and upward. His history includes a culinary degree from Johnson & Wales and catering for motion picture shows, with a local stint feeding the cast and crew on Walker Texas Ranger for many years...which is how we met. The Egg is a franchise so there is a "look" that corporate is going for. So, sorry, dude, but the dried flowers won this battle, however, in counter attack, we also provide real flowers, which are changed out on a regular basis. We've asked about being able to put up local art. I don't know what the decision will ultimately be. Most of these restaurants go in resort communities and we are working with corporate to get an understanding on our unique area and the flavors that make Dallas. Much work has gone in to making the Egg comfortable and pleasing with a New Orleans twist.
Regarding the food, everything is fresh and fresh prepared, with soups being homemade, etc. Michael's two primary loves are people and food.

We love and live around the Casa Linda area and want to see it grow and this is why we chose that spot for the restaurant. My favourite items on the menu are the Crab Stack and the Veggie Benny. My drink of choice, is either the fresh squeezed grapefruit juice or a mary.

"Another Broken Dream"....I've lived in the White Rock area for over 20 years, and believe me the idea of a good (sic) new breakfast place opening in Casa Linda was WELCOME!! Barbec's is a bust. Cafe Lago is INTOLERABLE because of the owner. Gave it a couple of weeks before trying it...First of all, did these new owners realize they are in an area surrounded by incredible artists? When I walked in I felt that I had just entered the dining hall at C.C.Young, or Autumn Leaves....fake flower arrangements, HORRIBLE,fake, mass-produced paintings...that wall color!!??? Those NASTY coffee mugs??!! OOOHHH MYYY GAAAWWWD!! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!!!??? I guess they're thinking 'chain restaurant', which it is, but could they not jazz up the place to keep it out of the 'retirement community decor'? (Can we think 'Buzz-Drew's'???) Can they get local art on the walls? By the time I got to the food, I was soo disheartened, that I was not so sure that even the BEST breakfast would make it better...it wasn't, and it didn't! WHAT A DISSAPOINTMENT!!! A TOTALLY DULL, UNINSPIRED PLACE! 'll eat at home.
